Before people get too excited about Bernie's performance in Iowa and New Hampshire...

When would you suggest we start to get excited? This could be the only chance we have because Bloomberg has bought the other states, Corporate Democrats are screaming bloody murder and will spend billions to bring him down...just sayin'.

Might as well enjoy what fleeting moments of happiness that might come our way before we descend into rule by Billionaires. Elections have never brought me happiness and I expect to end this one with ashes in my mouth. I can still believe that Bernie has a chance...that working people will rise up and seize what is their due. That men and women everywhere can join hands and fix our broken nation, that we can fix our broken climate, that future generations will inherit a world that is better than this one.

You can vote to keep doing what we're doing or you can vote for Bernie.

The popularity and enthusiasm for Sanders is not in dispute.
His policies, ditto.

What is sobering is the unelectable white collar grifting that is going on with the unelected party establishment. They have control over the ballot supply.

Who’s votes and how they get counted are getting decided by these frauds and flop artist grifters. Expect more of the same consultancy ripoffs, tech app swindles and sudden rule changes that is rife with the Democratic Party primary.

That is what maintains it. It’s what Party backers like NWP are counting on to keep the status quo of the party going. Nevada has a looong history of vote rigging. That’s the sobering battle that gets fought next.

For all the phony pearl clutching of foreign meddling and the sanctity of our elections blather that’s been incessantly blasted at the public over the last 3 1/2 years the silence of the corporate infotainment of the current banana republic style election fraud going on is revealing of their enabling it.


Robby Mook wrote the Clinton campaign app that they revered like a golden calf in 2016.
It was sh!t and helped Clinton lose.

The same Robby Mook who helped develope the Shadow app that was foisted on the IDA by the DNC for the caucus.

Robby Mook got paid both times. Very handsomely.

Liberal meritocracy was always bullish!t to justify screwing people over. In what world does incompetence and failure get rewarded over and over?

I believe I posted Naomi Konst addressing that world in an earlier video post in the Iowa thread. The DNC world is where.

No wonder they’ve been screaming RUSSIA! Helps hide the rip offs.
No wonder AOC has declared war on the DCCC ballot monopoly and is building a financing organization outside of DNC control to elect real progressive democrats instead of Joe Manchins.

Sanders threatens these white collar grifters meal tickets. The grifters that stuck the country with Trump but get paid either way. They are doing it to you again by the way.

A very good dive into the anti democratic liberal institutions that will work on Trumps behalf rather than see a Sanders nomination:

“From the standpoint of those liberals tied to investor-class interests, a Trump victory in 2020, even if it were to raise a serious threat of authoritarianism, could be less disturbing than a Sanders-led, left-tacking political realignment. And, much as the Clinton administration’s liberal architects of welfare reform dismissed their left critics as tendentious and naïve—until those critics were proven right—liberals’ insistence that Sanders can’t win preempts, at least for now, questions about what they would do if he were to win the nomination. Would they support him? Would they follow Bloomberg, or someone else, on a third-party ticket?”


Here They Come Again: The Kind of Neoliberal Democrats Who Prefer Trump to Sanders

I notice the liberals doing the ‘screw ball’ finger twirl at critics is no longer working like it used to with the general public as much as it does with themselves.

Ditto on Bernie Bro or Red baiting button pushing.

Elections fraud on the other hand....

Your confidence in the Democratic party is far greater than mine NWP.

Liberals and flies, I do despise
The more I see liberals, the more I like flies.

Chunks, did you know that Capital Hill Blue was originally started in 1994 as an anti-Clinton vehicle? I don't know if you could call our founder a "progressive", but he's a guy that sees through the bullshit of partisan politics. I expect he doesn't cotton much to the 'socialism' of Bernie Sanders though.

I don't think they consider themselves to be socialist. I think the term, over there, is 'democratic socialist'. Well, then there is one that is a monarchy too.

have you been following their prison situations? Finland, I think (one of them) has actually shut down most of their prisons. A good thing I think as their crime is very low.

they are the happiest people in the world too!

Again, I am not against tax paid services. I am, however, dead set against any Democrat even thinking the word "socialist" in America. My problem, again, is with the word, not the content (except in extreme situations like bernie has proposed which seriously involves gov telling people how to live their lives, basically "my way or the highway" stuff. I am not sure how to say this. It makes me very nervous when somebody is determined to 'help' no matter what I think.
